Section 20:18:17:28 - Jackpot payouts and hand pays

If a slot machine is unable to drop sufficient coins for payment of jackpots and hand pays, the payment must be made by the operator or manufacturer who owns the machine.

The jackpot payout slip must be a three-part carbonless form if the operator does not utilize a slot management system and a two-part carbonless form if the operator utilizes a slot management system. Prior to use, access to the jackpot payout slip shall be restricted to authorized personnel.

Jackpot payout slips must be sequential prenumbered forms and must be used in order. Serial numbers of all jackpot payout slips in possession of a retail licensee or operator must be reconciled. All original and duplicate void slips must be marked "VOID" and require the signature of the preparer.

Jackpot payout slips must be prepared containing the following information:

(1) The location;
(2) The date;
(3) The time of day;
(4) The slot machine number;
(5) The reel symbols displayed on the slot machine;
(6) The amount of the jackpot payout in numeric and alpha form; and
(7) The signature of the support or key licensee or operator making the payment and the signature of at least one other operator or support licensee attesting to the accuracy of the form.

After the jackpot payout or hand pay slip has been prepared, the original jackpot payout slip must be delivered to the accounting department of the licensed operator who owns the machine to be used in the calculation of slot wins. The second part of the jackpot payout slip must be retained by the cage cashier. The third part of the jackpot payout slip must be dropped into the accounting paperwork lock box or retained in a locked dispensing machine. Jackpot payout procedures must have the approval of the executive secretary.

This rule does not apply to the disbursement of progressive payouts pursuant to § 20:18:17:24.14.
